After enduring two weeks of temperatures in the nineties, Coach Adam Kozerski unveiled the 2025 Football Mustangs in perfect, Northern Michiganesque weather Friday night at the MAC.

Being the first day in which you may practice in pads, we ere forced to forego the Green-White full-contact scrimmage, that will take place next Friday, but put on an impressive exhibition of our 7 on 7 passing skills, along with Tug-O-War, Tractor Tire Races, Passing Route Drills, and aforestated 7 on 7 passing competitions.

The consensus of those of us manning the press box was that we looked like a veteran ball club, receiving meaningful contributions from the freshman corps, many of whom were members of the 2024 Division Champion Colts program.  Senior Isaac Amin would have eaned Player of the Game honors for his Pick Six pass interception and touchdown during the 7 on 7 scrimmage.

The 2025 Colts were introduced and looked good in their brand new, unscuffed up white game jerseys, and the Cheerleaders were introduced and in fine form leading cheers throughout the two hour exhibition.  Brian Kuntz and Joe Schuck, you new broadcast team, got in a useful workout.  We will be back in the booth this Friday night, and I will put some pressure on them as we will make that test broadcast available to the public.

Patty Goering was at her post taking photographs of each of our player as they ran out of the tunnel Friday night, so I expect to have a myriad of photos to post over the next few days.

Our next public scrimmage is Friday night, August 8th at 7pm when we host Boone County.
